such cases, the interface converter can be connected parallel to the

4 … 20 mA cable (dashed line in the previous illustration).

7.2 Parameter adjustment with PACTware

For parameter adjustment of the sensor via a Windows PC, the con-

figuration software PACTware and a suitable instrument driver (DTM)

according to FDT standard are required. The up-to-date PACTware

version as well as all available DTMs are compiled in a DTM Collec-

tion. The DTMs can also be integrated into other frame applications

according to FDT standard.
Note:

To ensure that all instrument functions are supported, you should

always use the latest DTM Collection. Furthermore, not all described

functions are included in older firmware versions. You can download

the latest instrument software from our homepage. A description of

the update procedure is also available in the Internet.
Further setup steps are described in the operating instructions manu-

al "DTM Collection/PACTware" attached to each DTM Collection and

which can also be downloaded from the Internet. Detailed descrip-

tions are available in the online help of PACTware and the DTMs.

All device DTMs are available as a free-of-charge standard version

and as a full version that must be purchased. In the standard version,

all functions for complete setup are already included. An assistant for

simple project configuration simplifies the adjustment considerably.

Saving/printing the project as well as import/export functions are also

part of the standard version.
